I have created a Transfer Job to import some of my website's static resources to Google storage.
The job was supposed to import the data in a bucket named www.pretty-story.com.
It is importing from a tsv file located here.
For instance the first url is :
https://www.pretty-story.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.min.js
so I would have expected the job to create the folder structure starting with wp-includes.
But instead the job created this folder structure www.pretty-story.com\wp-includes\js\jquery.
Therefore the complete path (including my bucket name) is :
www.pretty-story.com\www.pretty-story.com\wp-includes\js\jquery.
How can I tell the data transfer job to use the bucket as first folder, instead of creating a subfolder with the same name ?
According to https://cloud.google.com/storage-transfer/docs/create-url-list:
When an object located at
http(s)://[HOSTNAME]:[PORT]/[URL_PATH]is transferred to Cloud Storage, the name of the object in Cloud Storage is[HOSTNAME]/[URL_PATH].
You don't have an option to skip the [HOSTNAME]/ part of this, so what you are asking is not possible.
If the amount of data involved is reasonable, I recommend downloading it to a workstation and using gsutil to copy it into a bucket without the hostname prefix.
